Brian Behlendorf 71c9f0b003 Make kstat.ks_update() callback atomic
Move the kstat ks_update() callback under the ks_lock.  This
enables dynamically sized kstats without modification to the
kstat API.

  * Create a kstat with the KSTAT_FLAG_VIRTUAL flag.
  * Register a ->ks_update() callback which does:
    o Frees any existing ks_data buffer.
    o Set ks_data_size to the kstat array size.
    o Set ks_data to an allocated buffer of size ks_data_size
    o Populate the array of buffers with the required data.

The buffer allocated in the ks_update() callback is guaranteed
to remain allocated and valid while the proc sequence handler
iterates over the buffer.  The lock will not be dropped until
kstat_seq_stop() function is run making it safe for concurrent
access.  To allow the ks_update() callback to perform memory
allocations the lock was changed to a mutex.
